WOW!! I have to say this one is on my top 5 RS4's. Very classy and very well done, The alloys really do set the car off well without looking modified. They are certainly the alloys I would put on mine.

You must be very happy with the result :D

His car has changed a bit since that picture was taken.
Looks much better again.

Must admit have been racking my brain to think of something I could do to put my own 'stamp' on the RS (Nige's done a good job with it).

Those alloys look sweet and OEM. :D
B5 RS4, misano red.Several 'enhancements'.

BTW the car looks amazing...
Thanks mate, the fronts are direct fit from what I remember, the rears needed needed slight modifications, i.e. 10mm bracket holes drilled out to 12mm to accomodate for the B7 caliper brackets...

KD, thank you for your kind words, without being too biased, I agree with everything you say there! And yes, I am very happy with it!

:lol: Des, i've been through a 'few' sets of wheels as you know, some wrong, some ok and some which suit the B5 to a T (like my previous 2 sets.

I know what you mean there, it's very difficult to play about with a car which is almost perfect without ruining it, I totally agree, Nige did do a fantastic job with his example, I like the CHs as they do not look 'over the top'

Nils, I'm really likeing your photos in this thread, you've got a good eye. You've chosen great locations (I had a look round Coventry and found nothing like that, lol) and you have stood back and used a good focal length.

And as others have said, you car is really mint.

Thanks Martin, not quite on your level.

Makes me feel better knowing you approve!

Those shots were taken driving around City of London, some nice locations, might have another night where I go and practice some more.

Thanks Chew, glad you think so!

I know you had the R32, but did you have a Grey 6n polo back in the day??

Yeah been on the dub seen for a while, 97 Golf VR6, 01 Golf V6 4Motion, 53 reg R32....now the B7 RS4.. (with numerous other non VAG in between)

only turbo I have had is an MR2 Tubby Rev 3 back in the day - I do miss boost, stupidly considering a B5 RS aswell as the B7 but thats just vulgar hey! maybe a nice 69 splitscreen camper instead.....

never owned a polo tho.........
